Android Studio allows to design the GUI with widgets like Radiobutton, small button, checkbox etc, which has its own properties.

I am very new to android and I want to add new widgets in android studio by extending current widgets/views (for example, adding new settings for Seekbar) (if possible). Any idea, how can I implement it?

I know that I can create custom views by xml for the app. But I want to add that in android studio.

  • RadioButton is not a Widget, it is a View (even if it is in the widget package). You want to know how to devlop a custom View, or you want to know how to add the drag and drop button to add your custom View in Android Studio GUI ? Commented May 6, 2015 at 15:47

On the "View Editor" screen, on the "Palette" tab, go to "Custom" section and select "CustomView". Then, select your Custom View, and drag and drop it to your user interface.
